What olive oil is best for bread dip?

You know this bread dipping recipe is the only one that you need, because it has just the right amount of fresh and dried herbs which makes it so utterly amazing and a keeper.

Of course, the main ingredient here is olive oil. And let’s be honest extra virgin olive oil is most amazing, because it has all bold and savory flavors that are so good.

I wouldn’t bother with light olive oil friends, as the result wouldn’t be as flavorful and delicious.

Tips and tricks

You can add more crushed pepper if you like it more hot. In my gusto this was an amazing amount of heat level.

The longer Bread Dipping Oil sits in the fridge, it will taste more intense.

If you find it isn’t mixed properly anymore, yet give it a small stir with a fork or teaspoon and it will be well combined again.
